I have three Tables. - Commit Items, Invoice Header, and Invoice Detail. Lets assume that For Commit No ACB001 there are 4 Records in Commit Items Table with many records for other Commit Nos.. When the invoice is received for Commit No ABC001 and entered on Invoice Header table with Invoice No and Commit No ABC001, I would like automation to grab four records from Commit Items table and create those 4 records + Invoice number in Invoice Detail table. How do I achieve this? Just a reminder, I am new to AirTable.

For context - I’m a literary agent and I’m trying to create a way to have a ‘live’ brochure of clients who are available for writer for hire gigs that I can share with editors. I’ve created a form which the clients can use to add and edit their details whenever they want and at the moment I have this set up to feed to a gallery interface just through the airtable interface section. It works reasonably well, but the long text field doesn’t seem to have a space big enough assigned to it in the display so a lot of the text is being cut off and I don’t want editors to be able to open the record because there’s other information there that I don’t want them to see. It’s also cutting off if the authors select more than 4 genres which is a bit frustrating.  Is there a way to adjust how the gallery interface deals with data display? Or is there another option within airtable I could look at that would enable me to customise more? I’m not very familiar with interf

I had Omni build a Form for users to collect new record information. It has two levels: Claims and Claim Details. I wanted it to allow a user to create a new “Claim” and the continue to add each new “Claim detail record” from this same form. It works in the regular interface, but as a form it only allows the user to select from existing “Claim Details.” Is there a setting for that field that I need to change in order to adds new detail records?

Hi, I hope you're all doing well. I wanted to let you know that I'm building a chatbot in n8n, and I need the IDs for my "Base" and "Table" sections. I'm using an AirTool node for this; however, I don't know how to access them through AirTool. According to Gemini, it should look something like this:Copy the IDs:The code that starts with app... (Base ID).The code that starts with tbl... (Table ID).

I have a table that lists the openings and closing of homes. Each record is a specific date and an opening or closing. So there is single select field that has the choices Open or Closed. Each record has a date and the single select and a customer and the property along with a few other fields. Right now 27 records.I also have a summary table with a link to the open and close table. Each record is a customer’s open and close records in the link field. That table has 22 records.I want to filter for the latest opens so I can create a list to email through an automation so I get a l list every week what's currently open.Does anyone have a idea of how to do this?.Thanks.

I’m trying to use the new ChatGPT integration with Airtable - specifically to have ChatGPT pull data from one of my bases in Airtable base . I’ve configured the settings in ChatGPT to connect to airtable, but Chat GPT is still asking me several times to confirm it has access to my base and other data points in Airtable. Is there a way to configure this to stop asking this question? It seems to be slowing it down. 

Can someone guide me on whether there is a way to nest views under major topics/departments? For example, our photo team might want to have different ‘Views’ they use, but I want to group all of their views under one department. Our ecomm team also has different views, but I want to nest them all under ecomm. I work with between multiple departments, so I want to see views grouped by department (photo, ecomm, production, retail, etc.). We are in the beginning phase of setting up airtable for our teams so we are still learning how this all functions. Thank you for your help!

I’m tentatively looking for a freelancer to help another department in my business get their Airtable database off the ground - Creative team to manage projects.This is a fairly simple, and short, job that I’d do myself but simply lack the time, and the department has no capacity themselves to be trained up to do the work themselves, so this is very much a capacity issue. Interest?

I have a question about adjusting my base design to accommodate a new data requirement.I use my base to run our property management company. It consists of 4 main sections: Customer tables, Contract tables, Property tables and Invoice tables. When I created the base I did not think about the possibility of a customer selling one home and moving and retaining our services for the new home. Silly me. Our customers are owners of generational homes in a resort and as such they rarely sell.In the contracts table I have a field that captures the year we took them on as a customer of that property. That year is derived from the signature date of the contract for the current property. All fine and good until they move. Now we have an old customer with a new house and the years as customer is now only valid for the new property. I lose the history of their original contract. I need to have a way to keep the original year.I have thought about putting a field in the custom

I’ve seen similar questions asked, but I can’t quite find the solution I’m looking for.I manage a fairly large (~2000 item) equipment inventory. I have a system to check items in and out to different people, projects and locations. Basically, I have a table of inventory items, and a table of in/out transactions that links to the inventory table and includes quantity checked out, destination, program, etc. I also have a form for various users in the company to create a transaction record, and dynamic fields in the inventory table to keep track of how much inventory is available, and how much is checked out and to whom.

Is it my impression or the latest version of the SDK removed support for defining a table as a custom parameter? My extension reads data from another table as support for that has been recently added. In order to avoid hardcoding things, I was allowing users to select a table. This was supported  (see link below). However, the latest version of the SDK does not seem to support that. (^0.0.0-experimental-e7419444f-20251120). I’ve updated my code so the parameter is now just a string. It seems to be working. Could you please confirm this makes sense?https://airtable.com/developers/interface-extensions/api/BlockPageElementCustomPropertyThe signature of the type BlockPageElementCustomProperty I’m getting does not include that type anymore (see below) and I also get a run time error.type BlockPa

Hi all,New to the community here 😊Quick backgroud, I use Airtable as core operational platform for enterprise-scale stadium delivery coordinating content, instructions, and approvals across major events. External stakeholders access structured workflows via a portal in Softr, while internal teams manage live production delivery in Airtable.I’m currently on Business and evaluating a move to Enterprise Scale.Before upgrading, I’m trying to confirm whether Enterprise Scale supports embedding Airtable Interfaces into third-party portals (e.g. Softr) with the following requirements:Embedded without public “share to web” access Users authenticate normally (Airtable / SSO) Interface permissions are enforced (role-based access, edit vs read) Users can edit records and reorder rows within the embedded Interface

Hi Airtable Community,I’m trying to confirm whether the CSV Import Extension supports updating an Airtable Checkbox field from TRUE → FALSE when using “Update existing records / Merge”—or if there’s a known limitation/workaround.What I’m trying to doWe run a recurring sync where we: Export a CSV from Google Sheets that contains: a unique ID (used for matching) several columns of values one column that represents a boolean (e.g., TRUE / FALSE) Import that CSV into Airtable using CSV Import Extension → “Merge with existing records” Map: CSV ID → Airtable ID field (for matching) CSV boolean column → Airtable Checkbox field What works I

Hey everyone!I built Sheet Wizard - a Chrome extension that lets you bulk update Airtable records using natural language commands instead of manually clicking through rows.For example: "Set all records where Status is 'Done' to Priority 'Low'" or “Update Due Date to 2026-01-10 for all Marketing Campaign records in Project"It's live on the Chrome Web Store with a 7-day free trial. Would love feedback from the community!Happy to answer any questions!https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/sheet-wizard-for-airtable/ofhnpikabgcaihpaohanedkodjfgboiahttps://www.getsheetwizard.com/

I have 20 project managers. Every Monday i need to email each of them independently their list of jobs that meet specific criteria they need to take action on.

I have a table called “Tickets” that my team enters project requests. Each ticket has a due date. A second table called “tasks” are specific things that need to be done to complete the project. Some of these tasks must be done a specific number of days (lead time) before the ticket due date to meet the deadline.I have a third table with standard tasks with a field called “lead time” that I use as a template to populate the tasks for each project.I want to be able to automatically enter the task due date based on the pre-defined lead time and the ticket due date. These dates need to editable to account for holidays and other conflicts, so I can simply use a formula.I want to create an automation that will look at the ticket due date and calculate the task due date (subtract number of days from said task due date) and enter it into the task due date. I can handle most of the automation, but I’m a bit out of my league trying to grab data from one tabl

I’m working with a company that manages products, materials, and services across multiple Airtable tables.I want to use the Airtable API with Python to perform data integration / migration between two tables: A source table containing general product records A destination table where records must be created based on specific selected fields One of the main challenges is that I cannot rely on fixed column names, and I need a way to define which fields should be considered by the script when creating new records.I’ve read that working with JSON is the recommended approach by Airtable, but I’m unsure about the best practice to: Select only specific fields from a table Map them to the destination schema Maintain a relationship with a linked table (“categories”) My question is:What is the recommended way to automate field selection and mapping

Hello community,In our company we use Airtable in the Business version. This includes about 100 technicians who also have access.Since I now also use Airtable privately for our club, I’ve been thinking a bit about accounts and costs. This led me to the following thought:If I, as the workspace owner, have a Business plan, do all others who only fill out forms and enter data only need a Teams plan?Am I understanding this correctly? Or do all accounts need to be on the same plan level in order to work within the same workspace?

I’m looking for some advice re database design - and how to make the data entry easier using an interface…I’m a literary agent and specifically at the moment I’m trying to build the back end for tracking royalty statements. The tables I currently have are:ClientsTitlesContracts (which will usually only link to one client, occasionally two, but often multiple titles)Editions (which are created automatically when a contract is added and the formats a title will be produced in are decided - each edition will link to one title (although there will be, potentially, many editions per title, and one contract and which ever client/clients the contract and title are associated with). Payments (where I am trying to track the income and use views to be able to see what each client/title has earned)I’ve then gotRoyalty Statements (which is the top level statement info)Royalty Statement Detail (where a line for each edition co
